Specifying Module Interfaces with Finitely Defined Automata
نویسنده
چکیده
The use of automata as a specification tool is analyzed. Trace Assertion Method (TAM) is used as an example. TAM is a formal method for specifying module interfaces. It treats the module as a black box, and was designed as an alternative to an algebraic specification technique [1], and became quite popular in the software industry [13]. Finiteness and concurrency issues are discussed. Key–Words: trace assertion, automata, module interfaces, formal specification

MULTIPLICATION MODULES THAT ARE FINITELY GENERATED
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $M$ be a unitary $R$-module. An $R$-module $M$ is called a multiplication module if for every submodule $N$ of $M$ there exists an ideal $I$ of $R$ such that $N = IM$. It is shown that over a Noetherian domain $R$ with dim$(R)leq 1$, multiplication modules are precisely cyclic or isomorphic to an invertible ideal of $R$. Moreover, we give a charac...
متن کاملA characterization of finitely generated multiplication modules
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $M$ be a finitely generated unital $R$-module. In this paper, first we give necessary and sufficient conditions that a finitely generated module to be a multiplication module. Moreover, we investigate some conditions which imply that the module $M$ is the direct sum of some cyclic modules and free modules. Then some properties of Fitting ideals o...
متن کاملON GRADED LOCAL COHOMOLOGY MODULES DEFINED BY A PAIR OF IDEALS
Let $R = bigoplus_{n in mathbb{N}_{0}} R_{n}$ be a standardgraded ring, $M$ be a finitely generated graded $R$-module and $J$be a homogenous ideal of $R$. In this paper we study the gradedstructure of the $i$-th local cohomology module of $M$ defined by apair of ideals $(R_{+},J)$, i.e. $H^{i}_{R_{+},J}(M)$. Moreprecisely, we discuss finiteness property and vanishing of thegraded components $H^...
متن کاملOn finitely generated modules whose first nonzero Fitting ideals are regular
A finitely generated $R$-module is said to be a module of type ($F_r$) if its $(r-1)$-th Fitting ideal is the zero ideal and its $r$-th Fitting ideal is a regular ideal. Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $N$ be a submodule of $R^n$ which is generated by columns of a matrix $A=(a_{ij})$ with $a_{ij}in R$ for all $1leq ileq n$, $jin Lambda$, where $Lambda $ is a (possibly infinite) index set. ...
